Default miles to service problem

Hi guys and gals,

My W211 E class behaves a little strangely when it comes to telling me how many miles to the next service.

It was serviced 1000 miles ago by the previous owner, and now sometimes it says "service D in 12431 miles" At some point in the journey it will then say "service D in 7233" and then if it is feeling particularly strange it changes over to saying "service D in 7233k/m" ... I certainly hope is is not due in 7233k/m!!


UPDATE

It is doing it every time I drive the car.

Miles to service is now starting at around 12,200, after driving a mile it jumps to saying 7500KM to service (note KM not MILES)

If I flick through the pages on the computer using the steering wheel buttons, and then back to the miles to service page... it then says 7500MILES (note MILES this time) to service.

Any ideas? Services are expensive enough without having to have one early

Thanks in advance for your help

sounds like a problem with the version coding. youll need the dealer to look at it. something is programmed incorrectly.
